YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

CVS and Walgreens announced agreements to pay $5 billion each to settle thousands of lawsuits over their role in the opioid epidemic. Rick Mountcastle is the former federal prosecutor who led the Justice Department investigation into Purdue Pharma. He`s doubtful the settlements will have any real impact on the public health crisis and says they won`t change companies` behavior.
